loges

Most people have Weideman in their starting 22. Not saying he won't be there but IMO he's the biggest question mark of all. Really needs to show something pre season.

This is a good summation of his abilities, he no doubt has attributes, but under pressure he tends to fumble and miss targets ( often kickable goals )

Are you stuck back in 2008 ?

There's some very long bows being drawn here.

Probably

So Jack Martin is Carltanks marquee player LOL.

Surely with his injury history, thats too big a risk?

Joel Smith for Weideman/Petty if fit and firing.

Please note: The season doesn't start for several months yet.

Welcome back.

So we shouldn't have to play them twice due to ladder positions last year. How come we always play them over there ? It's like always having to playing at Geelong every year.

Bit of 3 stooges there Wise?

It's not the trade period , it's a draft he can do what he likes in private, but by putting it out there in public he's trying to influence the draft.

It's about time the AFL came down on this draft tampering. Martin has no right to name any one club he will only play for. He's open slather for anyone to draft him who will pay his contract. having said that he's probably not worth anything over $600K

Would you prefer sign language?

Involvement in the game and intensity. Has some good moments but at other times is O. Mac like.

This would be so Melbourne, time for an attitude change

I believe if he refuses to play for the club that drafts him he has to sit out 2 years.

Skype anyone?

And he gets banned from playing for 2 years.

Yes, see this is where the draft falls down, once a player enters the draft it's supposed to be open slather for anyone to pick them up, no draft tampering, no refusing to play with certain clubs. But of course the AFL just turns a blind eye.

I suppose my question would be, why weren't we having those same discussions?

Thought he showed a fair bit considering he came to the club at the last minute without a proper preseason. He just inevitably ran out of steam in the latter part of the year. He's the one if we don't pick up anyone else.

We can certainly do with a skilful small forward but reckon it won't happen because that's just how we roll.

I think he just has to be out of contract.
